Never mind the test prints, the highlight of this thread is undoubtedly the Derby
probably yes, I would expect that indeed, and Chromalife inks on a swellable paper may even reach the performance of pigment inks...that would be the Wow effect .My suspicion is that swellable papers with some good standard dye ink might exceed the performance of OEM Chromalife+ using standard microporous papers.
Just to get this right - so the upper part is not the "kept in dark" part?...
the top part of all 3 patches got an overprint with a gloss optimizer (I'm only showing the black patches).
The prints on the swellable papers don't show any increase in lightness of these patches yet, and it is interesting to see that the GO overprint so far shows a similar level of improvement and protection. With these results in mind I can expand the measuring intervals and will scan the patches in 3 weeks again.
